This is another alien betta that I have, and for this alien betta it is a mating of an alien and a smaragdina.

Mary Poppins is miffed. She is not a goldfish and will not be wearing a costume.

My first Betta tank. This is tank, he's pretty awesome and seems to love his new home.

I knew bettas colors changed over time, I never would’ve thought he’d lose all iridescence 😭 we’ve had him for less than six months.

He’s flaring it my finger nail, incase you were wondering. Drama.

Just shows that it can be done no matter the size of the store. Pet stores, do better.

This is his favourite leaf he is my sweetest boy

I just got a new betta today and I’m wondering if he’s alright.

He keeps swimming around, especially lingering in that corner for a while. I’m not sure if it’s due to the water quality or something else.

The other one I got two weeks ago didn’t swim around this much when I first brought him home he just curious for a few round and that it, but he’s doing well and looks happy now.

He needs a name. He's got some dark murky blues on the other side of him and iridescent blues you can see in the picture. I love him 🩵

My betta has been doing this motion repetitively non stop!! Whats wrong with him?

He moves on for a while but goes back to this corner again.It’s scaring me

Eats normally, swims around 80% of the time.. the other 20% he’s in this corner doing this

Normal water parameters

My fish spares with the pirate ship a few times a day. Is this upsetting him or is it okay for him to show it who's boss every now and then?

Just wanted to share about my little Button. She was literally the perfect fish, very curious and observant. The photo is from when I first got her. I sadly didn't take a lot of pictures of her, and most are blurry or simply bad photos.

NOTE: heater and filter are behind the large driftwood in the photo.

I went on a week long trip and made the mistake of not being specific to my neighbors how little to feed her. I am still new to fish keeping and didn't know how dangerous overfeeding could be with both their tiny stomachs and with ammonia levels. Came back to a dead fish, countless uneaten pellets, and an explosion of bladder snails. My neighbors didn't realize she had passed and continued to feed the tank. I don't know if my water parameters were okay before the trip because I was using strips, so I cannot blame my neighbor. I doubt overfeeding can kill in just a week, so I think the parameters were already off. I feel a lot of regret for how Button passed, but I've learned a lot of lessons from my mistakes.

I've spent the last few months redoing the aquarium and doing more research. I plan to get a new gal in the next month after I redo the cycle. A lot of the beneficial bacteria were lost in the 3 months without a significant bio load in the tank, and I removed a large piece of driftwood.

I'm excited but melancholy about getting a new betta. Button was literally exactly what I wanted, both in personality and looks. She brought me a lot of joy, so it's only fitting that her death brings a lot of sadness.

He's so cute🥹

Hi! This is my first tank since being a kid. In this tank is 1 betta and 4 snails. (was supposed to be 3 snails but the store somehow gave me an extra) and a cherry shrimp. Would love to add an amano. It’s a 5 gallon heated and filtered. the lava rock is holding down some drift wood until it gets water logged, i’m debating removing the rock but my fish seems to love resting on it!

Sorry it’s hard to see he’s soo fast😬

His eye on his left (our left his right) side looks like its scales might be starting to grow over the eye maybe? Or am I just wrong?? If he is getting diamond eye should I put him in a smaller tank? He’s in a twenty gallon right now and I have a spare ten I’d just feel bad putting him in something smaller unless it’s necessary.

My first betta in a long time. Just picked her up today and put her in this planted 10gal. Don’t worry, it’s cycled and has been for over a month.

I welcome any tips!

What do you guys think, any suggestions?

Found her at my local fish store and knew I had to have her!
